TSC Star Crests with Chris Dodds
“Huge shoutout to everyone who came along to TSC Star Crests on Saturday! The ratio of experienced volunteers to Starcrestees this week was unreal (our final jump consisted of nine experienced jumpers to just one starcrestee!) – thank you – your support was seriously appreciated!
Congratulations to Reece who smashed out all three of his Star Crest jumps in one day – what a weapon! Also to Nelson who got in his final jump and went on to assist, and to Cambo for getting his second jump completed. Just one more to go!!
As ever, massive thanks to TSC and SQPC for kindly sponsoring this event, and to Ben for filming us!!”
Chris Dodds.

Taryn & Nick: ”Amazing experience. The instructions were so much fun 😊” Jorge: ”Love it !” Fernando: ”Amazing.” Gabriel: “♡” Collette: “Had the BEST time! Thankyou to my big brother for the best gift ♡”.
An absolute Blast. Totally exhilarating. Sarah, my diving buddy was totally professional and competent. She rehearsed my moves. Gave me an opportunity to bail (which was never going to happen but would have been appreciated by a possible nervous type), was a very good tourist guide on the climb out so fabulous experience all round.
Thanks to everyone there.
Cheers, Carol.
